Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.

You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them.

Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back

Friendship with oneself is all-important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else.

People are like dirt. They can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die.

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.

Friendship is love without his wings!

I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don't believe I deserved my friends.

Children make your life important.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft...

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

A good friend will always stab you in the front.

You can make more friends in two months by becoming more interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get people interested in you

Be slow in choosing a friend, slower in changing.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

Real friends stab you in the front.

Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.

People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.
